Just as your college gave you a well-rounded education to be an industrial engineer, so, too, do you have your resulting preferences, strengths, and weaknesses. If you find programming to be boring, you are going to be miserable, or worse yet, a failure if you apply for an industrial engineering position where you are extensively writing C, Python, or some other code.

On the other hand, if you are uber-organized, then a Master Planning position might be just the thing for you. Job fit scenarios like this abound, so think carefully before you apply for the position. The responsibilities and skills sought will be outlined in the job description, so make sure you pay attention, do your research and determine that you are a good fit before showing up to the interview. That way you won't have your resume automatically added to the heap of unsuitable applicants right after a cursory screening.

Once you know you are a good fit, tell the interviewer about your relevant experience. If your background is in Master Planning, you could say something along the lines of 'As you can see on my resume, I have three years experience as a Master Planner for GE (or whichever company you work(ed) for. I used an SAP system for material management, and I am quite proficient at it. Before that, I used an apparel ERP system for order processing at a global eCommerce apparel store for two years.'
